LaTeX-make – Easy compiling of complex (and simple) LaTeX documents
This package provides several tools that aim to simplify the compilation of LaTeX documents:
- LaTeX.mk: a Makefile snippet to help compiling LaTeX documents in DVI, PDF, PS,… format. Dependencies are automatically tracked: one should be able to compile documents with a one-line Makefile containing include LaTeX.mk. Complex documents (with multiple bibliographies, indexes, glossaries,…) should be correctly managed.
- figlatex.sty: a LaTeX package to easily insert xfig figures (with \includegraphics{file.fig}). It can interact with LaTeX.mk so that the latter automatically invokes transfig if needed.
- And various helper tools for LaTeX.mk.
This package requires GNUmake (>= 3.81).
